DESCRIPTION

The SET and SHOW VIDEO_PROMPT commands control whether or not you are prompted before any message part of type video is displayed. The prompt asks you whether or not the part should be displayed. If you answer in the affirmative, then it will be displayed; otherwise, it will be skipped and the remainder of the message, if any, presented.

By default, video parts are not displayed without your prior approval. To suppress prompting, issue the SET NOVIDEO_PROMPT command:

EMAIL> SET NOVIDEO_PROMPT
EMAIL> SHOW VIDEO_PROMPT
Video display prompting is disabled. 
EMAIL> 

To restore the default behavior, use the SET VIDEO_PROMPT command:

EMAIL> SET VIDEO_PROMPT
EMAIL> SHOW VIDEO_PROMPT
Video display prompting is enabled.
